Braids (also called plaits) are timeless classics for any hair length. A fishtail braid is the perfect finishing touch to add a boho touch!

Add highlights to your short hair for a voluminous and sophisticated finish, using a balayage color that creates a natural-looking shimmer.

The high-volume fringe is an elegant classic style that works for all hair types and facial structures, providing height and volume without too much weight on your head. Comb-overs with bangs can completely revitalize traditional older men’s styles and give them a contemporary edge.
